About Sean Wotherspoon

Sean Wotherspoon’s star continues to rise, maintaining his status as one of adidas’ most prolific current creative partners. As a founder of the successful and ever-expanding Round Two empire, Sean’s encyclopaedic knowledge of classic sportswear and obsession with vintage memorabilia have seen him develop a number of sell out sneaker and apparel releases, as part of our ongoing brand partnership. Highlights include his debut reimagination of the iconic Superstar SUPEREARTH, a patchwork take on the ZX 8000 in both adults and kids sizes and the adidas SUPERTURF ADVENTURE SEANWOTHERSPOON sneakers, now available in a number of colourways. One key feature of Sean Wotherspoon’s colourful designs is his dedication to limit their impact on the planet, with some releases featuring repurposed waste from manufacturing processes and plant based materials.
